Hello everyone! :-D

I am new to Myfitnesspal but I have been using the app for about 2 weeks now. It has really help me control my calorie intake. I look forward to connecting with you all and hopefully gain some motivation.

I am 6' 00" and currently weigh around 191 lbs but my goal is to drop down to ~180ish. I used to weigh around 245lbs at one point in my life but that was a long time ago. I have maintained my weight between 194 to 200 lbs for the last 4 or so years but I would really like to drop down to 180. I have really been working out hard over the last month and I have lost several inches around my gut but I would like to become a little more ripped in my abdominal area.

I work out about 4 to 5 days a week and I am in pretty good shape overall but my biggest hurdle is a lack of calories. Due to my profession I may skip breakfast and lunch and end up eating a super heavy dinner right before I go to sleep. This obviously plays havoc on my metabolism. The myfitnesspal app has really helped out with my calorie intake though. It just seems as though I have hit a plateau big time.

Anyway I just wanted to say Hi and I hope you all have a fantastic week. I really look forward to learning from you all.

Joe
